AeroMobil The Car That Can Fly
Adam Milton-Barker | Feb 15, 2015 | Smart Devices & Wearables | 4874The AeroMobil is a revolutionary example of modern technology that resembles something you would expect to see in a Transformers movie. This amazing vehicle combines two forms of transport, cars and airplanes. The AeroMobil is a flying car that transforms from a car to a plane and back again on demand and will surely revolutionize the way we travel. The flying car runs on regular gas, can drive on regular streets and basically do everything a normal car can do, but as an airplane can use any airport in the world as well as landing on grass and concrete. The AeroMobil 3.0 is a prototype which has been in testing testing since October 2014 and the final product will have features such as autopilot and advanced parachute deployment system. The top speed of the airplane is 200km/h and takes of at about 130km/h, while the top speed on land is 160km/h and more. The AeroMobil is said to be able to fly about 430 miles on a full tank and averages about 29 miles per gallon according to Business Insider. In 2014 AeroMobil became a member of the Slovak Automotive Industry Association which according to AeroMobil, produces a massive amount of cars world wide and more recently this year AeroMobil joined the UK Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders Association. Another recent accomplishment for AeroMobil was when the chief designer named Stefan Klein received a badge of honor from Andrej Kiska, the Slovak President. This year the project continues to grow strong. You will be able to see the vehicle at the Top Marques Monaco supercar show and the team recently announced that AeroMobil has been nominated for the South by Southwest (SXSW) Interactive Innovation Award which is one of the largest technology events in the world. The team have recently updated their website to include an FAQ section where they try answer frequently asked questions about the project, to find out more make sure you check out the website by clicking on the related link above. There are photos and videos below for you to check out and I will write more about the progress of this amazing project later in the year. Good luck to the team at the awards and keep up the hard work.
